AI Ready. Developer Obsessed.

Generate entire systems, not just code
Encore's declarative framework lets AI tools generate fully-integrated distributed systems with services, APIs, and cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP, instead of only isolated snippets.


Automatically validates AI generated code
Encore's parser validates all generated code to ensure it correctly implements service and API definitions and infrastructure integrations.


No knowledge loss
Encore preserves critical context and developer understanding, providing automatic docs, service catalogs, API references and architecture diagrams, even as AI contributes more code.
